Sookie finds out finally that Hadley is dating Sophie-Anne, the Vampire Queen of Louisiana, and that said Queen knows about Sookie's powers, which is how Russell got interested in her. So now you know why all the vampires in the world are after you, Sook. Feel better? I noticed you haven't mentioned Bill in like ten minutes. Sookie's just intrigued and weirded out by her constant in-demandness, and Hadley shrugs, because honestly I like the actress but the character just refuses to add a goddamn thing to the show.

"They don't think like regular people. I don't know why they do half the things they do." Always a valid excuse to stop thinking. I bet Hadley hated the Maryann storyline. So Hadley recommends once again that she get the fuck, and that she and Hunter are going to do likewise, but first could she brain-talk to the kid. What do they talk about? Nothing really. Fish. Getting kidnapped by your bisexual ex-addict mom. The usual. As she drags him away to an unknown location, Hunter starts yelling, "She knows! She knows!" but since that could mean literally anybody and we have no context, it's not as scary as it feels like it wants to be.

Tommy steals Arlene's tips, which she knows because "Four Daughters of the Confederacy with French manicures just told me I was the best server they ever had" and thus would not stiff her, and they fight. Arlene says "my white ass," which is something only racist trash like Arlene would ever, ever say, and then runs to tattle to Sam, and gets funny again: "Turn that fucker upside down and shake it out of him!" I would love to see that, wouldn't you? Shake, shake, shake. Anyway, they all get real trashy and Tommy echoes Arlene ("Is there anyone you don't let walk all over you?") but in a new way where it means he just got called a pussy the second time, which means the third person to call Sam a pussy today is, as noted above, going to Get It. The best part of this fight, though, is how it only hits a fever point when Tommy insults Arlene's service, which pushes her over the brink. She does take pride in her work, she's always been real good about that.

In case you were wondering whether Holly was the most even-minded and supportive person in the entire history of all time, she is. She follows Arlene into the back office and talks her through the Tommy altercation and through being disillusioned by her job and being worried about the baby. And then they talk about how the baby is EVIL because Arlene is a total idiot: While the actual fact of evolution may be the scary imaginary Devil's work, Lamarckian genetics is just plain ol' intelligent design.
